Immaculata University has joined Montgomery County Community College’s (MCCC) University Center initiative and will soon offer its Doctor of Education in Higher Education (Ed.D.) program at MCCC’s Central Campus in Blue Bell.

First introduced in 2006, MCCC’s University Center offers an entrepreneurial approach to expanding higher education opportunities for residents of Montgomery County and surrounding areas. Through partnerships with four-year institutions, students can choose from eight bachelor’s degrees, two master’s degrees, one graduate certificate, and now – for the first time – a doctorate.

“These partnerships are so important in higher education, and they show a great deal of entrepreneurship,” said Dr. Karen A. Stout, MCCC president. “Before we introduced the University Center model, our graduates had to travel to the greater Reading and Philadelphia areas to continue their education in baccalaureate and graduate degree programs. However, for many of our students and community members in the Tri-County region, this commute simply isn’t possible.”

While the institutions have enjoyed a long-standing and popular transfer agreement that paves the way for MCCC associate’s degree graduates to seamlessly transfer into bachelor’s degree programs at Immaculata, this is the first time Immaculata will have a physical presence in Blue Bell.

“This agreement with MCCC is really what we were hoping for when we developed the new degree in Higher Education,” said Sr. R. Patricia Fadden, IHM, Ed.D., president of Immaculata University. “MCCC is our first partner in this program, and we’re very excited to bring it to the Montgomery County community.”

Immaculata’s Ed.D. in Higher Education program is designed for higher education administrators and faculty who are seeking to advance their career opportunities by expanding their knowledge of current trends in higher education and developing leadership skills. The program is also ideal for individuals working in related fields who are seeking a career change.

The program features a hybrid course model that blends online with face-to-face interaction; a cohort model that builds a learning community among students; and a practicum experience that enables doctoral students to demonstrate and apply their knowledge while networking in their field.

Immaculata University joins four existing University Center partners — Albright College, which offers courses at MCCC’s campuses in Blue Bell and Pottstown, and Chestnut Hill College, Temple University and Villanova University, which offer courses at MCCC’s West Campus in Pottstown.

Previously she served as director of Professional Development for Learning Sciences International in York, PA, before moving to director of Teaching, Learning, and Development there. Throughout her career, she has held various educational-related positions including Federal Programs Coordinator, Early Childhood and K-12 Literacy Coordinator, Elementary Assistant Principal and Principal, and Speech Language Pathologist all within the School District of Lancaster, PA. In addition, she has served as an adjunct faculty member at several colleges and universities throughout the region.

In 2008, Dr. Schooling earned her Ed.D. in Educational Leadership from Immaculata University. She received a Bachelor of Science in Education and a Master of Science in Communication Disorders, both from Bloomsburg State University.

Dr. Schooling has been published in various journals and publications on topics such as Ten Tips for Maintaining a Visible Presence the Classrooms, Stuttering Prevention and Detection, and most recently Comparing Teacher Evaluation Models. Dr. Schooling has also been the recipient of several honors during her career including the Army Community Service Award, and the Good Schools Pennsylvania (for full-day kindergarten), and awards for Continuing Education from American Speech Hearing Association (ASHA).
